A genetically encoded BRET-based SARS-CoV-2 Mpro protease activity sensor
The main protease (Mpro) of SARS-CoV-2 is an important target for COVID-19 therapy. Here, a pair of genetically encoded BRET-based sensors for detecting Mpro activity are generated by sandwiching N-terminal autocleavage sites in between the mNeonGreen and NanoLuc proteins.
